Ltappears that quite a number of whi persons, .wo colored men. and one colored woman presented them- Selyes for examination. During its progress there Was nothing said nor any question asked which weuld indieave chat part of those pres- ent were white and part black. Alter the ex- sanination was over, and all action taken, pre- ious to the actual admission of those applying at the next communion was over, br. Boynton said to the colored men that recognising in them educated and well-infurmed black men he would be glad to learn their views regard- & the future of cheir race. Their replies were the effect that they looked to a final ming- ling of the two races and the disappearance of all distinctions. Dr. Eoynton then remarked that in bis opinion there was a better thing in store for their race than to be lost among the whites, and that by standing by each other in eligions, bene vo nd education t tions of their own their best interes: served. At the same time he stated dis- y bis willingness to receive them. From last there Was no expression Whatever desire or intention to exclude them. And Im proof of this. as the last thing that took place at the meeting, the pasior and the deacons pres- to the colored men, shook hands the pastor saying he wanted them to feel that they come to the church; that they did not come imto it under any cloud whatever, aud that jhey would all strive to make them as happy thére 4s possible.

A series of resolutions were presented expressing the above idea, and a counter proposition 10 the effect that it was not dewmed expedient for the Grand Division, in it representative capacity, to memorialize congress for the passage of such a law. Both of these propositions were discussed, and as it was deemed advisable to have a full and free | expression of opimon on the thom, the Grand Division sdjovrned to meet again on Wednesday evening pext, at Temperance Hall, to take ferther action im the matter. Ou Saturday evening the Jonadabs initiated ® eumber of bookbinders of the Government ‘Mice. as also a prominent member of the bar, and made arrangements for a parade of Satur- day evening next, on the occasion of attending the fair of Columbia Division, Sons of Tem- perance, East Washington, where they expect to open shortly a pew conncil. On tbe same evening members of Rising Sun, Bethesda, and Union Lodges of Good Tem- plurs assisted in insututing a new lodge of the order at the camp of the 44th infantry, south of the President's, in which twenty-five members were initiated, and the following officers were elected and installed: W.C.

An adjourned meeting of the Washington Irish Cathelie Societies was held. yesterday afternoon im the lecture room of Carrol! Halt, to consider what measures are necessary to en- sure {he proper celebration of St. Patrick's day, ‘ the th of March. Owing to the brief interval noe the last meeting, and the indefinite under- «nding with regard to the character of the propored celebration, bat few so represented, and therefore ored of was of # very meager Character. Mr. J. J. Kane, of Georgetown, was continued as ebairman, bat Mr. N.C. Ryan dectining to re- sume the duties of secretary, on motion, Mr. Kenuearly was chosen to fill that position. Reports of the Committer on Invitacions be- ing im order, Mr. Curry, the chairman, stated that he had corresponded with the Hibernian and Immaculate Conception societies, but from weather bad received any official response. Dr Walsh, of St. Peter's Temperance So ty, presented credentials of himn-elf and col- leagues as delegates therefrom, with instrac- ten to co-operate in whatever proceedings might take place Delegates were also present from St. Domi- nick's St. Aloysius, and two Georgetown soci- Mr. Doner, from the Committee on Pro- gramme, submiied a plin of the route to be marched over by the procession, which was Tead aud offered for discussion.

Bosides, the special character of the celebration hud not bern defiaitely explained; but if, as the society to which he belonged understood it, it waa de- signed to be exclusively temperance, more time Was Recessary to make arrangements therefor. It we counted withont oar host, and the Cath- olic temperance societies made a meagre dis- play, he feared the effect upon the cause would be deleterious and weakening. The Chair replied that it was not contempt ted to confine the celebration to the temperance Other Catholic societies were expected to co-operate. He agreed with Dr. Walsh that it was important, in @ city where there were so many Iri-b as in Washington, that thereshould bea fall tarn our, ‘Dr. Walsh expressed his gratification at be- posted upon the subject. Believing, how- - with Smith O’Brien, that liquor was the only drawback to the Irish in this country be- ing our best citizens, he was anxious that the temperance men should be the prominent feat- ure in the celebration. His Society had no sacrifices to make, and would cheerfully acqui- sce in whatever measures were decided a Many persons were to the fem. perance cause; butsuch only showed their fool- ishness. For himself he was free to say thai he had never known what it was to enjoy life until be had become a tetotaller. Mr. N. ©. Ryan inquired whether the post of honor in the procession had been assizned to the oldest society? the first society mentioned on the I Mr. Kennearly opposed action upon the pro- gramme until it was ascertained what could be done to secure a creditable celebration, and moved that the delegates present report ‘whi members could be relied upon from the soc:eties they variously represented. Mr. Doner thoughtit useless to press such a motion, for not one-fifth of the Catholic soc - eties in the city were represented. fbr. Walsh would preter postponement of Action until a future meeting. As before stated, the inembers of St. Peter's Temprrance Society. to which he belonged, had no sacrifices to make and would co-operate with ether Catholic societies whose members were not teetotallers. Because all men were not temperate, it was no reason why they should not be as good as those who were, He hoped the mecting would adjourn. he Chair did not think it expedient to con- fine the celebration to the temperance societies. Many years ago, Father 0" Coole’s Temperance Association numbered over twelye hundred members, and when they turned ou’, it required two or three bands of music to be employed now, all the Catholic temperance societi im Washington combined could not count half that number. Mr. Ryan hoped the temper feature Would be preserved. Should the societies sep- arate, he was free to <ay at the Young Catho- Tiends’ Society of Georgetown, which he would represented, not co-eperate to any ¢xtent—they would not have a do; rsona in the proc Let all Irishmen who wished | to do so in the celebration, but tem- perunce men should go together.

The old lady and the som were in the habit of coming to Washington and Georgetown to dispose of their product, and being known as frugal people, it was sap- Posed that considerable had been accumulated by this means. A number of negroes in the lo- eality, knowing these facts, proceeded to the residence of Mrs. Mulls, on the Leesburg pike. one night last week, and brutally. murdered her, besides severely injuring an old lady who was sojourning in the house at the time, The son was sound asleep at th: time. and knew no. thing ot the horrible affair until the next mora. ing. ‘Lhe Virginia authorities the next day ar- rested five notorious negroes of the neighbor- hood on suspicion, who were committed to the Fairfax connty jail, It was ascertained that a considerable amount of money had been taken away, which was doubtless tie incentive to the murder.— Republican. ees A New OrGawization.—The new organiza- tion called the Washington Masonic Mutaal Relief Association, met last Saturday night at Masonic Hall, corner 19th street and Pennsyl- vania avenue, when the following were chosen officers for the SPRING eer r recuinat, A.C.

Two bids only were received, but they were from responsible mechanics; one offering to do the work for about $3,600; the other for $3,700, Instead of contracting ‘with the lowest bidder, it was urged by some members of the Corporation that there was not enough competition, and to give all a chance proposals should be advertised for. This was done, and at the appointed time only one bid was received, and that from s non-resident of the town, offering to do thr work for $5, It seems that the point was not again made of want of competition, but a contract was closed at tbat price for the work notwithstanding the fact that one at teast of the two bids above mentioned had not been with- drawn, It may be all right, but to tax-payer- it looks like a needless expenditure of almost $2,000, the difference in the bids.
